Standing down at Standing Rock, Part 1

February 22, 2017 at the Oceti Sakowin Camp (one of many camps) was known as eviction day or as many called it The Last Stand. It was the day where all water protectors were forced to leave a place they called home. The official time of evacuation was to start at 2 o’clock that afternoon but due to weather conditions; it was hard for many water protectors to leave the camp as they became stuck in 5-10 inches of mud.
